Considered that. It may well be, but the recent WinAmp problem, and the mpg123 vulnerability attached to the message (which appears legit) does at least mean it's possible, even if not something the RIAA is paying for.

I think I'm really more interested in figuring out what sorts of corruption could take out a player, and making some sort of isolated system to "check" mp3s, not unlike a virus checker.

Not, however, likely interested enough to work on it.
